Chapter 7 Metal Detector

Lin Mo looked at the smallest pile of boxes and felt that there would be unexpected surprises inside, so he said to Scott: "Scott, what is inside the box? It's not a heavy machine gun, right?"

Lin Mo said to Scott in a joking tone. When Scott heard it, he quickly said, "How is that possible? Lin, you must know that heavy weapons are not something that people like me can touch. It is very good that I can sell some long spears. It is the engineering equipment that the good friend I just mentioned to me to bring to me. To see if your government is interested, it is a pity that your government is obviously not interested in this thing at all."

"Oh, I don't know what kind of engineering equipment it is, I think it must be some kind of high-tech again." Lin Mo asked with interest.

Scott heard Lin Mo's interest tone and immediately felt enlightened. You know, he and his friends spent a lot of money to get this thing. He thought that the National Government would be very interested in this high-tech thing, but he didn't expect it to be so sucked in his hands. When he heard Lin Mo was interested, he quickly said to Lin Mo: "This thing is the most advanced mine detector in the world. I wonder if Lin is interested."

When Lin Mo heard Scott's words, he felt disappointed. He thought it was a top-level equipment. It turned out to be a metal detector. It was a mess in later generations. I wonder how many people were holding a detector to search for treasures everywhere. What was the use of this thing, Lin Mo thought to himself.

Suddenly, Lin Mo felt clever in his heart, and he was exploring treasures. Lin Mo thought that he had seen the treasures of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in Nanjing countless times in his previous life. Although it seemed that no one had found them, he still saw many reports of the treasures, as well as some legends of finding treasures, not to mention other things that were hidden. Lin Mo had a few of these things. Thinking of this, Lin Mo felt hot inside, but Lin Mo immediately suppressed his inner emotions, showing a look of interest in the mine detector, and asked Scott: "I don't know which mine detector this is?"

When Scott heard Lin Mo's inquiry, he immediately explained enthusiastically: "This is the Fisher detector, a detector better than the Bell detector." After hearing Scott's explanation, Lin Mo knew that this was the prototype of various detectors in later generations. (Compared with Bell's metal detector, Fisher's metal detector is better than that in the future. Bell uses electromagnetic induction, with a small detection distance, relatively weak signal, very electricity, and heavy machine. Fisher's radio detector is better than him in any aspect. Modern portable metal detectors originated from Fisher's model, and later improved by many inventors, becoming lighter, more sensitive and easy to use, becoming an indispensable and efficient tool in modern life.)

After hearing Scott's introduction, Lin Mo recalled the history of this detector, but unfortunately he couldn't remember how deep it could be explored. However, if there was really a lot of metal underground, based on the principle that this detector interfered with radio and metal, there was a high probability of detecting it.

After thinking about it, Lin Mo said to Scott: "Scott, this thing is pretty good. I'll send it to Uncle Lou in a while. The money will be paid for you." Lin Mo thought for a while, and then asked tentatively: "I heard that some arsenals in the West specialize in producing some collectible guns. I don't know if you have such guns in your hands. If so, I would like to buy some."

When he heard Lin Mo's inquiry, Scott became even more depressed. He really couldn't figure out how Lin Mo could even know this. In fact, Lin Mo didn't know if there was any. He just remembered the collected gun pictures on the Internet in later generations, and various pistols with exquisite patterns, which made Lin Mo salivate at that time. Since he had the chance to play with a gun in this life, he naturally had the idea of ​​having a date but no date to hit two shots, and to see if he had a chance to buy it. If Scott knew Lin Mo's thoughts, he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood.

But Scott didn't know Lin Mo's true thoughts, and replied: "Lin, how did you know? You should know that not many people in our place know that there is this thing, and there are not many such guns in your country?"

When Lin Mo heard Scott's question, he smiled and asked, "Do you have that?" Could I say I was just asking randomly?

Scott was not easy to answer Lin Mo's replies. He brought some here to Nanjing this time to open up the situation. However, Lin Mo is his own big customer after all, so he replied: "Lin, I do have some of these guns, but the number is not large. I can only match you four m1911a1 and two m1903s. These guns are black and silver. I will give you half of one color. However, Lin, this gun is very expensive, and the unit price of one is $500. I wonder what you think?"

"Yes, then thank you Scott." In fact, $500 is already very expensive. You should know that the average pistols Lin Mo bought before was only more than 40 yuan, and it is only a dozen yuan for US dollars. These four guns can buy all the pistols just now. However, Lin Mo also knows that there are not many opportunities, and he likes them, and he is not short of money. He is also very sincere in giving away people in the future, and he will not lose money.

After discussing business, Lin Mo and his friends were polite with Scott, communicated for a while, then got up and said goodbye. Lin Mo and the other four left the Western restaurant and strolled on Zhongshan Road.

Not to mention, Nanjing City in this world really has a different atmosphere. Whether it is the architectural style that is different from later generations or the spiritual outlook of people in this era, it gives Lin Mo a feeling of being in a different world.

Several people were wandering around on Zhongshan Road. Before they knew it, it was noon. Several people found a hotel with good decorations and walked in. They asked the clerk for a private room on the second floor and walked in. As soon as the clerk sat down, a clerk brought tea: "Several guests, don't know what to eat?"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Lin Mo hadn't been here before, so he looked at Yang Haicheng and the other two. The three of them shook their heads. Lin Mo had to say to the clerk: "It's the first time we've been here. Let's have a few signature dishes today." After Lin Mo said that, he waved his hand to the clerk, and the clerk went out with tactfulness.

At this time, Yang Haicheng finally couldn't help asking Lin Mo: "Brother Lin, no matter how rich your family is, my uncle would not agree to spend so much money on the machine, and that Herbert is obviously a liar." Li Changwu and Zhao Pingnian also looked at Lin Mo in surprise. Lin Mo knew that the three of them were for his own good, so he waved his hand to Lin Haicheng and signaled him to listen to him: "You don't know much about business matters. We don't have to pay much money for our family. When those machines arrive, our Lin family will pay a deposit, get the goods first, and then you can find someone to cooperate with him, and let others pay my family a sum of money as a factory investment, and my family will use the money to pay the final payment."

Yang Haicheng didn't believe Lin Mo's words and asked back: "Don't talk nonsense. Others are not fools, how could they let you cheat?"

Hearing Yang Haicheng's words, Lin Mo gave him a blank look and said, "You only see that machines spend a lot of money. That batch of goods is not just machines, but other things."

Li Changwu's eyes lit up and he asked, "Lin Mo, what technical information are you talking about?" Zhao Pingnian also interrupted, "There are those technicians."

"Yes, it is not difficult to buy some machines here in China. What is lacking is technology and technicians. And this time I bought all the information and equipment of the entire factory. As long as it is processed, it will not take long to produce it skillfully."

Speaking of this, Lin Mo looked around vigilantly, reached out to signal the three of them to come over, and whispered: "Some factories did not necessarily produce current products before. There are many materials that may be produced by the past, and there may be other gains. Moreover, there will not be many people willing to sell these things. Of course, you have to seize the opportunity. Maybe you can buy other good things through them in the future. Our Lin family makes a huge profit in this business, so you don't have to worry."

Yang Haicheng was speechless at Lin Mo. He didn't know how his brain grew up. He was better than him since he was a child. He never won this aspect since he was a child, so he asked unwillingly: "Then why do you buy so many scopes and detectors? I don't think these things are useful." Li Changwu and the others also looked at Lin Mo. Although they felt that Lin Mo would not do useless work, they still wanted to know what these things were useful.

Lin Mo did not answer directly, but asked: "Do you know how many bullets can kill one person on average in World War I? And how many bullets can kill one person by sniper?"

Faced with Lin Mo's problem, the three of them went away. Lin Mo continued: "Average 10,000 bullets killed one person during the last World War, and this did not remove the casualties caused by artillery bombings and other reasons. The best sniper is 1.3 bullets killed one person."

"Impossible, why is there so much difference? This is impossible." Yang Haicheng shouted. He knew that the gap between the two would be very big, but he didn't believe that the gap would be so big.

"The sound is lighter. After listening to me, I saw some Western scholars calculate it. It is calculated based on the number of mice and casualties. The calculation process is fine, and the entry and exit will not be too big. 1.3 rounds is the best sniper's achievement, and the sniper rifles used by snipers are all selected from countless rifles with the best accuracy. And do you think Western countries are fools? You spend so much energy to cultivate snipers."

Li Changwu asked: "That's similar to the sharpshooters in the army, it doesn't seem that important." Lin Mo continued to explain: "It's a far cry from that. Snipers are sharpshooters, but sharpshooters are not snipers. Snipers with real modern significance first appeared in World War I. The first one to apply snipers to actual combat was Germany. At that time, Germany organized a group of excellent hunters and forest rangers. These people had strong bodies, good tolerance and patience to guard prey. After proper training, they caused great results to the British, French and Russian troops.

Casualty. And the most fearful thing about the snipers is not the actual number of killings, but the strong psychological shock to the enemy, making them feel scared at all times, and thus losing their fighting spirit to affect the morale of the army. You can think about it, when you are fighting with the enemy, a bullet flew from somewhere to kill your subordinates, and then a second person, a third person... or your subordinates are on the position, sticking their heads out of the trench, being shot to death, and the other person stretches out their heads and is killed again. You can think about it, what will happen to you in this situation?"

Hearing Lin Mo's description, the three of them thought about it and their subordinates on the battlefield and were scared to sweat. Yang Haicheng wiped the sweat and said to Lin Mo: "Brother Lin, when the scope is here, you must give me some. I will take the troops to the army after graduation and get some snipers out."

"You are the only one who trains snipers? Snipers either take a gun equipped with a scope. The gun alone has to select the best among countless guns, not to mention that they have to learn various professional knowledge of snipers, which is not something you can train. My third uncle works in the soldier training department. When the time comes, I will give him the scope, and they will naturally do it. At that time, you can just select a few people from your subordinates and send it to you."

Yang Haicheng nodded. He knew that Lin Mo's third uncle was a general, so this was not a problem. Lin Mo's father Lin Zhensong was the eldest son of the family. He followed Lin Mo's grandfather to do business since he was a child. Later, he took over the family's property. The second uncle Lin Zhende embarked on the career with the help of his family. The third uncle Lin Zhentao had been determined to save the country since he was a child, so he sneaked to the Baoding Military Academy. Later, he joined the Northern Expedition Army. Now he is a general of the National Government. The fourth uncle Lin Zhenming likes all kinds of Western machinery. Later, he went to study in the UK and is now a university professor. Because each of the four brothers of the Lin family has achieved great success, which is why Lin Mo can start preparing for the future just after he arrived in this world.

The knock on the door sounded, and the three of them stopped talking and asked the guy to serve the food, and the few of them started eating.
